red wig
I did it. I went back and got the RED WIG, and i am adorable!!!!
GONE BABY GONE!
The 3rd MRI results are in. The cancer is gone. You heard me. Packed up and left. Flew the coop. Tell it while you're walkin'. According to the radiologist and Dr. O'Malley, "there's no evidence of cancer." A PET scan will be done this Friday to confirm results of the MRI. While MC will still need proton radiation to ensure that no individual cancer cells remain, there will be no anterior craniotomies happenin' in this here family. Instead, MC will have outpatient endoscopic sinus surgery to take a few biopsies for safe measure and clean out her sinuses which, unrelated to the SNUC, have been clogged for years. More to come from the superhero herself......

It's Jeff, your red headed Philadelphia friend. Of course you are supremely adorable with a red haired wig, how could it be otherwise!
I am so glad to hear your spirits are being kept up (and that Tom is catching the spirit of the new technology by learning to use the juicer!)
I've been thinking about you a lot and wanted you to know I honestly tried very hard to visualize all the images you asked us to conjure up for creating platelets and the like...I really did.
I would close my eyes and attempt to keep my mind situated in one direction but somewhere along the path I would get distracted by the little woodland creatures:
There they are coming over for a picnic, frolicking through the underbrush, carrying their own dishware, which somehow turned into tupper ware, which quickly became the plastic red lunch boxes my mom used to make me take to school when I was in 2nd grade containing the same soggy peanut butter and jelly sandwich every single day, the jelly completely soaking through the Roman Meal whole wheat bread and the co-op peanut butter sticking to the waxed paper she wrapped it in.
By this point I would be totally off topic and try as I might to re-focus the little woodland elves would simply pay me no mind and begin dancing around the little patch of flowers I eventually sat down in and I could never get them to quit singing for a minute, mostly in high pitched operatic voices...
I know my job wasn't to free associate, but I can't help but skip from topic to topic and I am sorry about that. I meant well. Honestly I hope I wasn't more of a detriment to you than help!
Speaking of singing, I have been in a recording studio all day (which is where I am right this moment) recording a little 11 year old student of mine and this rock and roll song he wrote. Here is his chorus,
"Sometimes you think you're terrible, but you are REALLY incredible..."
It would make you laugh and smile quite a lot, it's pretty adorable actually, though not as adorable as a red wig I am certain!
Jeff
Okay, one more technology leap you'll need to take. Use the digital camera, have Tom take a photo of you in the red wig and ...well, to make it easy...email it to me and I'll add it to your blog.
You can't just write RED WIG and not include a photo!
I'll put one up of Shirley Temple by the end of the day if you don't email me a real photo! Hey, you tap too, don't you?
Oohhhh, I see where this is going!
love you the world,
Bridgette
I agree with Bridgette. You cannot write about having a red wig with no picture. What's up with that? Go Bridgette!!!! lets see that Shirley Temple Picture. And you know how to tap? Wow, I am liking this blog. Learning more about you every week.
Good luck tomorrow with round 3. I will be thinking about you as well as the rest of Kids First.
Love and prayers you way,
Pat
Mary Carol--WE DO NEED TO SEE THAT "RED DO" for ourselves.So cute!Did you know that Red is the favorite color for gowns on the Oscar Red Carpet tonight! You are in style, for sure.
Bridgette, can you find a picture of Doris Day in the 60's?.Your Mom was not only our hairdresser and Avon rep,but also our Doris Day "look alike" at St. Joes Ann Arbor.It's all about that SMILE!
MC, just get tomrrow over with and then be on your way to your next step for full recovery. You are the best!
Love ya,
